Moses Reyes was 16 when he was shot and killed at his home in the 11000 block of Lands Pond in San Antonio on July 16, 2020. He was with a group of friends and was playing with a gun when it was discharged; he was shot in the upper body, taken to a hospital, and died shortly before 2 p.m. that day.

The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office at first treated the death as a possible suicide, but witness statements led investigators to classify it as a homicide. A 14-year-old girl who was present later confessed to pulling the trigger and was charged with manslaughter. Authorities are still seeking two other teens who were at the scene. Moses was remembered for his hopes of a professional basketball career and for putting others first; his family and community have mourned his loss.

If anyone was at or near the Lands Pond home that afternoon or has information about the other teens who were present, please come forward.
